    Has anyone heard how Santana is doing?
  2. KirbyHawk75
    I was just wondering..He has been pretty impressive so far.
  3. KirbyHawk75
    Is there a chance Arcia might go back to AAA when he gets healthy?
  4. KirbyHawk75
    After watching the first 12 games have either of your prognosis of the season changed at all? I am not saying playoffs or anything, but do the Twins have a better chance to be at least .500 and more competitive?
  5. KirbyHawk75
    Well at least he swung on strike 3...... Having DM instead of Kubel coming up could bite us.
  6. KirbyHawk75
    Royals pitchers are wild tonight..
  7. KirbyHawk75
    I just do not want Mauer to strike out looking..
  8. KirbyHawk75
    Can he be a number 2 pitcher in a rotation? I do not believe he is an ace, but he can be a very good pitcher for us.
  9. KirbyHawk75
    Is my favorite kind of baseball game for the Twins. When we score a lot of runs, that is a bonus. It has been fun for us to have two back to back well pitched and well hit games. That has not happened much lately.
  10. KirbyHawk75
    What kind of contract would he warrant?
  11. KirbyHawk75
    Hopefully by May we will forget about Buxton's injury. This organization needs some good news though. Sano is out for the year, Buxton is having injury issues, Rosario is having issues. The free agent starting pitchers are as bad as anyone could imagine they could have been. Glen Perkins has a 10.80 ERA. Our bullpen has been overused already.
  12. KirbyHawk75
    This performance of the 4 veterans in our starting 5 has been devastating to the team. Like the article says if we are going to be that bad, we might as well play guys like DeVries for no money. When a team like the Twins fork up money on a player, they cannot be this bad.
  13. KirbyHawk75
    Is he a clubhouse chemist though?
  14. KirbyHawk75
    Sorry:) I guess I got excited to see it.

    http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=t_ros&cid=534&stn=true&sid=t534 Did Deolis Guerra go to New Britian? Just 4 infielders on the roster? Who else can play the IF? Or will the sign someone? I guess Parmalee could play 1B too. Only prospects on the team: Tonkin and Santana
  16. KirbyHawk75
    He just looks like damaged goods.
  17. KirbyHawk75
    I just seems like Gardy is hellbent on Bartlett making this team. He just seems done to me.. If they do not believe in Presley, they can find a better player on waivers.
  18. KirbyHawk75
    I guess in my opinion, yes. However, I think our pitching will be respectable. Our bullpen, if not overworked, will be our strength again. Our rotation will be better, but Nolasco is our ace; that is a problem. Our offense has a lot of "what if's". This might be the worst lineup I have seen as a Twins fan. I started watching them religiously in 1986 when I was in 5th grade. Maybe the years we had Orlando Merced or Kevin Maas batting cleanup, but this is a bad group. Suzuki reminds me of Matt Walbeck. Willingham seems way past his prime. If he can be anything close to two years ago, then maybe we could get a nice prospect. Floriman's offense does not make up for his defense. Trevor Plouffe is Trevor Plouffe. It is also kind of an odd season. A lot of the guys on the team know that younger more talented guys are in the wings to replace them. I think they know that...I think the fans are kind of waiting for next year and beyond. The management is waiting for next year and beyond. It has to be awkward.

    Seth, would you rather have Pinto start out at AAA? Just curious what your thoughts are on that. I agree if he does not play 5 days a week(which I hope he does) then he should be playing catcher every day in Rochester.
  20. KirbyHawk75
    I just personally believe that if we are going to lose, lose with young players. I do not want us to lose with Jason Kubel and Jason Bartlett. I want us to lose with these four and other young players(Tonkin for example). Then next year when Sano, Meyer, Buxton, Santana, May, and Rosario are ready the aforementioned players can be more established.

    C-Suzuki 1B-Mauer 2B-Dozier SS-Floriman 3B-Plouffe LF-Arcia CF-Hicks RF-Parmalee DH-Willingham bench: C/DH-Pinto IF-Escabar C/OF-Hermann OF-Presley Rotation: Nolasco Hughes Pelfrey Corriea Gibson Bullpen: Perkins Burton Fien Duensing Swarzak Duduno Diamond I like Kubel, but he is done IMO. I would rather give Parmalee another chance. He would be gone if we put him on waivers. Colabello deserves to be up, but I would rather have Hermann so Pinto can play some DH. If Pinto starts in the minors than Colabello takes his place. First Call-ups: P-Michael Tonkin P-Caleb Thielbar 1B-Chris Colabello P-Deolis Guerra OF-Wilkin Rameriz OF-Darin Mastroianni
  22. KirbyHawk75
    I do not get Gardy's fascination with Kubel or Bartlett, especially Bartlett. Twins are going to stink this year, so might as well play kids. When Bartlett got his first hit, a buddy and I were kidding that was the clinch for Bartlett to make the team.
  23. KirbyHawk75
    These 4 are sort of the first wave of the rebuilding of the Twins franchise. I want the Twins to be better this year.. That means a lot. But a bigger key, in my opinion, is finding out if these 4 can be a big part of our future.. Agree?
  24. KirbyHawk75
    Thanks... And I was not even necessarily talking about this year. I guess I also meant when he is in his prime.
  25. KirbyHawk75
    Could he be a 20/20 guy? Can he hit .280 or higher? I do not believe he will ever be a leadoff hitter.
